Beds Are Burning

Beds Are Burning is a 1987 protest song by Midnight Oil:



This song is on the list of 500 Songs that shaped Rock and Roll from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, but I don't remember hearing the song when it was released. I think I was singing "Hush, Little Baby" a lot that year. I do remember the song being played during the opening ceremonies of the 2000 Summer Olympics in Australia.
